Man all the negative influence here >..<

You're a student, don't splurge your hard-saved cash (which is probably your parents' hard-earned dough) on luxuries that fall way in the WANT category. Go enjoy what you have, study hard so that you can get a good job, earn big bucks and buy all the IEMs in the world next time ya?

No matter what I use microphonics are a definite issue walking around - a side effect of a good seal

.

The consistent best solution I've used, regardless of the cable, is the same as that advised to you in your REO microphonics thread - http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f103/r...honics-474452/ - running the cable over and down the back of your ears. That cuts the microphonics down the best IMHO.

You'll find a more detailed discussion of ER4 microphonics at http://www.head-fi.org/forums/f103/r...-cable-476276/

Head-Direct RE0 - $79
LiveWire Trips - $349
buying your first custom and enjoying a sound and comfort level unlike any universal - priceless

some things money can't buy, for all other purchases you don't want your mum to know about there's prepay mastercard

I got the $$ from working part time.
If i didnt work, i probably wouldnt even have thought of getting customs.
But after all ur guys convincing, i think i'm dropping the idea of getting customs

i'm looking at the ie8 or the tf10 now.

But cant decided which 1 will suit me better.

Looking for a fun sounding iem for pop,rock.
Awesome highs,isolation and low microphonics

I'm hard to please

 

[helljudgement]

The tf10 has good highs and isolates better than ie8 but only if you have a good fit. The ck10 and e-Q7 are also something you can consider.

Dude, you are the worst influence ever...

OP, I think that you should slow down a bit, enjoy the gear that you have, and don't subscribe to the "BUY BUY BUY" mentality that quite a few members here have. I like Justanut's words, you'll have plenty of spare cash once you're in the working world, and the means to buy it yourself.

You should definitely slow down. I did the same thing; I had a 1G Touch and some Super.Fi 5 (v2s) and just wanted more. I then bought the PFE 112s (loved those) and the Equation Rp-21s because I wanted something to use at home.

Now about a year later I sold all of that (along with my Touch and Nano) to get the stuff in my sig. Take it from me: Take your time and don't rush this stuff. I'd say to wait and either get a high end universal or save up for a top tier custom; not the livewires.

Oh and the Triple.Fi's sound amazing with pop; lady gaga is on a whole new level with the Trips.
